Is this worth double dipping for extra's???

My local video stores aren't gonna get any...

This thread discusses the release and its contents. No actual review yet though.

I just got it at Best Buy today. They had it on a table with the new releases for the week. I wasn't going to tell them it wasn't out till next week. Didn't watch it yet, but I will soon. The only problem with getting it early was it wasn't on sale like it will be next week.

I'm not sure, but I think the website had it listed on sale for only 22.99. still pretty expensive.

Trying to decide if it is worth upgrading, but have had little luck in finding reviews of the new set coming out. I know the DC is 10 minutes longer (122 min for Hellboy, 132 min for Hellboy DC), but can't find out if that extra 10 minutes is worth another $25 (like the Club Dread DC with 15 extra minutes of crap, making the CLub Dread Theatrical cut a better movie).

Here's a repost from another thread:


Well, I just finished watching the DC. The one new aspect I'm not sure I like about this new cut is the increased romance and flirting with Liz and Myers, especially in their scene in the car. Even Del Toro says in the commentary that the tone of this scene made him cut it out because Liz seems too happy-go-lucky this early in the film. All in all, I guess you could say the new footage makes it slightly better but it's really just the same film just longer. No new revelations that change anything drastically. Most of the new and extended scenes flesh out the story slightly but this movie's highlights were never the story imo. What I loved about Hellboy and still do are the cool and memorable characters: Broom Brutenholm, Voldo from Soul Calibur, the Nazi bitch, the intellectual fishman, Jeffrey Tambor and of course Hellboy himself. Even the generic love interest and young cocky kid were easy to watch. By comparison I didn't really give a shit whether Mary Jane died or not at the end of Spiderman 2. Anyways it's a fantastic DVD set worth owning even if you have the first version, the movie still rocks hard. Bring on the sequel!


Edit to add: here's a link that takes you to a 4 minute chat with Del Toro where he talks about the new DVD and the future of Hellboy. Just click and wait a few minutes:
